About the Position

We are seeking a highly motivated and qualified individual to fill a postdoctoral research position in the field of Islamic studies. The successful candidate will contribute to the 'Non-Muslim Islam' project, which aims to explore how non-Muslims produce Islamic discourse.

This is an exciting opportunity to advance your research career and contribute to the development of new knowledge in the field of Islamic studies. You will work closely with the PI and collaborate with other researchers from various disciplines.

To be considered for this position, you should have a strong academic background in Islamic studies, as well as fluency in Danish and English. Knowledge of sharia, history of religions, and discourse theory is an advantage but not required.
